Chapter 4: Plans and Preparations.

There are some surprises that are wonderful, and then, there are surprises that need a lot of energy in order for the heart to take it. The type of surprise Tsukasa gave her was the second one.

"Would you please explain to me why your lips are on top of mine?" She was too surprised to even be angry.

Tsukasa let go of her. "I'm sorry; I just got a bit carried away. I didn't mean for that to happen, and I promise it will never happen again. I swear."

No! That was the wrong answer! You were supposed to say that you enjoyed it too! And that you did that with intentions. Say anything! Ugh! I can't believe that guy, always apologizing for things he doesn't need to apologize for. I hate him so much. Tsukushi had mixed feelings. It felt awful not knowing what she wanted, and it was even more awful not knowing what he wanted from her.

Tsukasa walked into the bathroom and opened the water. He splashed his face with the freezing cold water that snapped him back to reality. Then, he a grin slowly appeared on his face. That disappointed look in Tsukushi's face merely told him she liked it as much as he did. He wasn't sorry at all, not even one bit.

Tsukushi One, Tsukasa One. All in favor to Tsukasa.

He was definitely winning.

"That no good bum, pretending that he was drunk! He was lying through his teeth. I'd bet anything that he's dancing around in the bathroom right now." Akira moaned as he slid against the wall.

He was. In fact, he started singing too, except his singing was so awful, the couple who was in the room next to them, complained about hearing weird dolphin noises while they were sleeping. Afterwards, the rest of the F4 left, and Tsukushi began packing for her trip to Paris. She laid out all the clothes she needed, and made a list of things she had to buy tomorrow when they were allowed off campus to get their stuff for the trip.

Tsukasa came out again, with nothing but a towel wrapped around his lower area.

"You know what, I'm kind of use to seeing you like this, so I'm not going to even bother acting embarrassed." Tsukushi rolled her eyes, as long as she didn't see anything less then that, she was fine.

"So, what are you doing?" he asked, looking curiously at the long list. Tsukushi was relieved. He didn't mention anything about the kiss—at least not yet.

"I need to pick up some things for the trip tomorrow. You should get packing too."

"Some things? It looks like you're going to stay there forever!" Tsukasa scoffed, looking once again at the huge list she had in her hand. He rubbed his eyes. Nope, the list was real. "Why don't you just buy them when you're there?"

Tsukushi whacked him. There was a lot more where that came from, a whole lot more. "Not every one is rich like you; it'll cost me a fortune to get everything there. Did you think I was made out of money?"

Tsukasa sighed. "Okay, I get it. I guess packing a bit wont hurt." He walked over a dragged out his suitcase. It was a Coach suitcase. Tsukushi giggled.

"Hey, what's so funny?" Tsukasa touched his face. "Do I have something on me or something?"

Tsukushi laughed even louder. "No, but I didn't expect you to have such a girly suitcase."

"It's not girly! You're just jealous!"

"I've never seen a guy with a coach suitcase! And me jealous? You wish!" Tsukushi grinned. Teasing Tsukasa was very entertaining, especially judging on the way he was blushing, she guessed that she hit a soft spot.

"Oh, shut up you—you strange girl!" He muttered to himself, and turned his back toward Tsukushi and began packing.

The next day, Tsukushi had woken Tsukasa up and made him go shopping with her.

"Why'd you have to make me come? Why did you have to make me get up so early? I'm so tired. Save me! Someone save me!" Tsukasa was moaning as he fought to stay awake. Who in the right mind would wake up so early? Certainly not him. As he was thinking about how unlucky he was, he walked right into the pole.

Tsukushi shook her head, and turned back to look at him. Then, rolling her eyes, she resumed walking. If she kept rolling her eyes like this, they will soon fall out, and she won't have anything left to roll at Tsukasa.

"Wait for me!" he cried out to her in a pleading voice.

"You're walking slower than a snail and you're expecting me to wait for you?"

"Yeah." He stared at her as if it was the most obvious thing ever.

"Right, I'm going to hurry up before I never get my shopping done. All the sales will be over by the time we get there. Notice I said we, so maybe it was really a bad idea bringing you along." She said, regretting her choice. She thought it would be fun torturing him, but instead, it felt like she was just torturing herself.

"Hey, I never said you had to bring me!" Tsukasa said indignantly.

At this, Tsukushi started running. Tsukasa stared incredibly. "What!? Are you expecting me to chase after you or something?! Cause I'm not you know." He yelled, but at the end, he ended up chasing her anyway. Didn't he always?

He eventually caught up to her and went inside the store along with her. A sales person greeted them. Tsukushi told them that they needed to buy some stuff for their trip to Paris.

"Oh! A trip to Paris, how romantic! I take it that you guys are a married couple, and this must be you're honeymoon trip! How wonderful! I'm going to give you a 50 discount for this! Best luck to both of you!" The sales lady was squealing with delight, and it was scaring other people around them. Tsukushi nodded apologetically towards them.

"I'm sorry but we are—" Tsukasa grabbed Tsukushi to the side before she could finish her sentence.

"Can you please give us a moment?" Tsukasa asked the sales lady. "I have a few things to discuss with my wife."

'What—" Tsukushi got cut off by the sales lady this time.

"Sure, have as much time as you want!" She gave them a mischievous smile. "Isn't young love just wonderful?" she sighed, smiling at them, reminiscing her younger years.

Tsukasa dragged Tsukushi behind some boxes. He heard the sales women giggling. "Hey Doumouji! Let go of me! I am not your wife!" she said, twisting her hand free from his.

'Well, didn't you hear how excited that woman was? Do you really want to disappoint her? Besides, 50 discount is a whole lot, don't you think?" He said, debating with her.

"Since when did you know how to be cheap? And save? I never knew you had that in you!" She tried to look disgusted at his cheapness. She just couldn't pull it off, so she finally gave up. It couldn't hurt, can it? "Oh fine, but only for this store! I'd die if I had to pretend to be your wife for the whole day."

'What if you really do become my wife?" he asked jokingly. But, there was also a serious expression on his face.

"That would never happen! Over my dead body!" Tsukushi was mortified at that idea. "Come on, let's get back. I don't want that sales lady thinking we were doing something dirty back there."

"Whoa, now that would be kinky. Sounds like something Akira would do." Tsukasa nodded in agreement and walked back.

"Have you talked it over yet?" said the sales lady, still smiling at them. Both Tsukushi and Tsukasa wondered if she had an overdose of Botox, because smiling for that long looked quite impossible to them.

"Yes, and my wife and I would love to see what you have." Tsukasa said, his eyes twinkling with delight.

Tsukushi waited till the sales lady turned her back on them and she made a motion of her retching at Tsukasa's direction. He just grinned back, with the same twinkle in his eyes, and shook his head no.

"I have a special thing for both of you here." The sales lady said as she led them to the back of the store. She motioned for them to wait and she came back with a package in her hands. "These are not yet in store, but I think you it'll come in use on your honeymoon sometime." She handed them the package, and winked.

It was a package of multi-flavored/colored condoms. Tsukushi and Tsukasa stared at it with wide eyes. Tsukasa was very close to dropping it like a hot potato.

"Um, I don't think we need those. We might have some at home." Tsukasa said turning bright red, like the color of the condom name "Very Cherry", which was one of the many condoms in the package.

"Ah, no need to be embarrassed! We all do it sometimes! Here I'll give it to you for free!
She said, putting a "free" sticker on it.

Tsukushi raised her eyebrow and leaned toward Tsukasa. "When we get back, you better throw those out, because I'm not using them anytime soon."

"Well, neither am I." He whispered back. With that, they both smiled at the sales lady and thanked her for her help, and then told her that they would like to look around for themselves.

"If you need any help, just tell me. I'll be here in a jiffy!" She said, giggling once again.

"Wow, and I thought that I've seen weird people in my life. They just get weirder and weirder don't they?" Tsukushi commented.

"Yeah, they really do." Tsukasa was still holding the bag of condoms in shock. They walked around the store picking up things they needed, still having to put up with the "sweetheart" act just in case that strange sales lady popped up again. They can never be too careful.

When they went to the cashier to ring up their stuff, the cashier gave them a weird look.

"What? You've never seen condoms before?" Tsukasa said, giving the cashier girl a threatening look.

"No, I have. It's just that I don't think these are even part of our inventory." She said, looking for a price sticker or bar code on the pack of condoms.

"A sales lady said we could have it for free!" Tsukushi exclaimed, and then remembered that it was a "new product" that wasn't brought out yet.

"Oh, that was probably our manager. She's in "love", that's why she's giving out all this free stuff and acting weird. She's usually not like this, but I guess after seeing you guys she went out of control. I can see you were pressured into getting this, even thought it's free." The cashier girl put the condoms in the bags along with the other stuff they bought and totaled them all.

Tsukushi went into her purse and took out her wallet. She was too late; Tsukasa already gave his credit card to the girl, and was carrying the bags and waiting for her to hurry up.

"Hurry up, dear." He said, smiling a wicked grin as he blew her a kiss in the air.

As she got closer to him, she pretended to get hit by a bullet and die.

"You know, that would have killed our act, you paying for it all." Tsukasa said, observing her angry look.

Tsukushi nodded. "I'll have to pay you back now." She went into her bag to get out her wallet again.

He shook his head. "I'm not taking your money. Besides, some of the stuff is mine."

Tsukushi shrugged. They were tired for the day; they had made all their purchases at the store and gotten everything for 50 off. It was a good day's work. The trip back was nice; they were walking on top of a hill on the way down back to campus ad the sun was already setting.

When they got back to the dorm room Tsukasa looked at Tsukushi, his hand on the bag of condoms. "You know, I'm not throwing these out, I might need it some day after all. I just hope they don't have an expiration date. They all sound so fruity." Tsukasa checked the labels. "Nope, no expiration date, these can last forever." He grinned at the very idea.

"Ew! Get away from me! I'm still a virgin! Jeez, I'm not going to do anything with you."

Tsukasa laughed. "Who said anything about you Makino, I certainly didn't mention you at all."

"Oh." Tsukushi felt embarrassed. Why did he always have to make her feel like an idiot? It was making her insane.

"Anyways, I'd want my first time to be with someone I love, not just any cheap person that throws themselves onto me!" He exclaimed.

"Yeah, so you're a virgin just like me, what do you know? I guess you can't tarnish your family name by playing around with girls." Tsukushi said dryly. Was he implying that she was cheap? He better not be. Knowing that Tsukasa was a virgin was not such a bad thing, because at least it showed he had self respect. But, there was still a part of her that felt jealous of that lucky girl. Why on earth was she thinking about this?

"Well, we better finish packing, its getting awfully late." Tsukasa resumed his packing silently.

"Yeah, we really should. We still have a lot to pack." She packed the rest of her stuff in the suitcase and went to take a shower, by then Tsukasa had already gone to sleep without even a mere "good-night." She was disappointed. But it wasn't like she expected one anyway.

"Well, mustn't think about guys and stupid stuff like that. Tomorrow I'm going to Paris!" Tsukushi reassured herself. There was no time to waste! She had to get her good-night's sleep and get ready for tomorrow. There was going to be a long day ahead of her.
